“A really nice modern, well equipped, clean apartment in the centre of Mevagissey minutes from the harbour.”

Shop and very good pubs minutes away. The bonus with this apartment is that it has its own car parking place.

“As sold. Can't fault it in any way.”

Great property, parking space an absolute bonus. Central location.

Jennifer September 2024

“We really enjoyed our stay in the Crows nest.”

The apartment was clean and comfortable and nicely decorated, with every facility you could want. Although we didn't use them, as the position of the apartment meant that we were so central to all the town offered and we were on Holiday after all. Truan was really helpful during our stay with a few queries, thank him for that. The weather was fantastic, the apartment was great. One drawback was the noise early mornings from the brewery deliveries, but we could forgive that for the ideal position and treasured parking space. Great holiday

- Jennifer, September 2024

Good morning Mrs Robinson, We are delighted you enjoyed your stay in the Crows nest and you found all the facilities met your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back hopefully in the near future. Best regards Lionel Property Owner

“Excellent experience.”

High quality and super clean.

“Gorgeous apartment in the centre of Mevagissey with its own parking space.”

The apartment has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay and is equipped to a high standard. This certainly ticks many boxes for a great holiday. I would say the only drawbacks if there are any would be the constant noise of the seagulls and the early morning (5am) deliveries to the pub opposite. The deliveries may have been more frequent due to it being “Feast week” so yes I would absolutely recommend the Crows Nest for a wonderful holiday.

“All very good.”

Very clean and comfortable. Worth mentioning to owner that the front door lock to the apartment is very stiff. We were worried about breaking the key. Otherwise all good.

Kenneth September 2023

“We ha d a lovely stayat the Crows Nest Mevaggissey.”

The apartment is excellent. Spotless and has everything you would need. For a sel cateting holiday. It is on the top floor of a 3 story building so if you have any issues with mobility it is not for you as there is no lift. There is a parking spot which is a godsend in Mevagissey as everywhere is pay and display. The only issue we had was noise in the early morning from delivery vehicles who all park outside the the Ship Inn opposite. If you are an early riser it is not an issue. Over all it is a great place to stay and we would book it again.

- Kenneth, September 2023
Julia September 2023

“Lovely apartment, but it was noisy being so central I guess.”

The windows didn’t shut properly which didn’t help, so that meant our sleep was interrupted with deliveries at the local pub about 6am or earlier most mornings.

- Julia, September 2023
Philip July 2023

“The apartment was very clean, well-equipped, well-located in the heart of Mevagissey with the bonus of a parking space.”

A short stroll to the harbour and all amenities - including an electric car charger about 200 yds away. There was a bit of noise from late revellers and early bottle collections from the Ship Inn opposite, but not a problem for us. More drawer space for clothing would have been useful. Though the weather was not particularly hot, the quilt was unnecessarily thick for us so we removed it and slept under the quilt cover.

- Philip, July 2023
Peter June 2023

“The accommodation was as listed, although it could have done with a few basic necessities, ie dishwasher tablets.”

The location was excellent. A short walk to the harbour & very central to all of the town. However the apartment is opposite a pub & it is very noisy, at chucking out time and lorries start unloading from 6am. This spoilt our stay as we didn’t get an uninterrupted nights sleep.

- Peter, June 2023
Stuart May 2023

“Generally our stay was good and only a couple of things spoiled it: I had to clean out the dirty gobbet of greasy hair in the basin of the bathroom as the water would not flow away.”

Not a pleasant job to start our week! Also, the advertised welcome pack of bread, butter and milk failed to materialise although there was a bottle of wine. PLEASE, if you're not going to provide this, do not say that you will.

- Stuart, May 2023
Desmond April 2023

“Very comfortable, great location and modern.”

Very light and easy to maintain. I would be happy to stay there again.

- Desmond, April 2023
Mark January 2023

“The apartment was very comfortable and extremely well furnished.”

It is in a great location in the centre of Mevagissey and the parking space is a major plus point.

- Mark, January 2023
Philip October 2022

“Very well maintained and in a great central position.”

The car parking space was good as the streets were very narrow with few parking spots. Loads to do within 30 minute drive including : lost gardens of heligan and the Eden project.

- Philip, October 2022
Steve April 2022

“Fantastic property, really central and handy for everywhere”

“The crows nest was perfect.”

Very clean, well equipped with everything we needed. The wine and chocolate was an extra surprise. We would definitely recommend the crows nest.

- Lawrence, March 2022
Carol March 2022

“Lovely apartment and spotlessly clean.”

Two bathrooms were a luxury! The bed was extremely comfortable too. I've opted for five stars for Facilities, although I wouldn't have expected to have to take dishwasher tablets and dish/cleaning cloths and if you're arriving late, remember to take the makings for a cuppa - Louise did say that they'd been advised not to provide these items, although the wine went down very well! The property was available several hours before the reported time, which was great. The only thing which could have been better was the relentless rain, but I guess we can't book that via the Sykes website!

- Carol, March 2022

“Excellent apartment.”

Melanie October 2021

“It's a beautiful apartment, the decor is lovely and fresh, the shower and bathroom were very clean.”

The kitchen area is great with everything you could need for a self catering holiday. The only things we missed were a coat rack and clothes airer. We'd got some thick winter coats and waterproofs. There's not really much hanging space in the bedroom to use that area for coats. Maybe put a coat rack on the back of the door in the tank cupboard so it's out the way. Which we kind of did because that's where we put our coats for the week just on the shelves, also that door handle sticks so we never properly closed it. You could also do with it's own drying rack, we borrowed one that was in the hallway downstairs (we weren't sure if it was communal) so I could put some washing out to dry. The welcome pack and the wine was a lovely treat, thank you. The parking space was a bonus. We would definitely recommend this apartment to friends and family.

- Melanie, October 2021
Samantha October 2021

“A fabulous apartment in the heart of beautiful Meva.”

Cosy, comfortable, modern, immaculately clean and equipped with everything you could need. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

- Samantha, October 2021
Graham October 2021

“The Crows Nest was absolutely amazing, ideally situated, exceptionally well furnished and clean.”

Perfect base for exploring Mevagissey and Cornwall in general. Definitely hope to go back there soon

“No Milk or bread left for our arrival Towels were small would have preferred ...”

No Milk or bread left for our arrival Towels were small would have preferred Bath sheets 9am departure was very early 10am would have given us more time

Kim June 2021

“The location of the apartment was excellent and provided a great base to enjoy the charms of Mevagissey”

- Kim, June 2021
Sue June 2021

“Perfect property wished it had been 2 beds though.”

Only thing missing was an airer, as there was a washing machine but no where to dry clothes / towels etc. Loved Mevagissy and surrounding area - great week thanks again

- Sue, June 2021
Hazel October 2020

“Lovely apartment, I would suggest a check list for the cleaner to ensure all equipment are clean for next tenants.”

The oven was left with the grill dirty, tray covered with foil and fat over it. We came upon this on the Tuesday, 3 days into our holiday and due to Covid 19 we did not want to call Sykes to ask for it to be cleaned so left it and used microwave and takeaways instead, not a major deal for us as did not intend to cook meals. But a check list may help avoid this. Otherwise a great location in a majestic harbour village right on the edge of the fantastic southwest coastal path. Thank you. Hazel

- Hazel, October 2020
Julie October 2020

“Amazing apartment, spotlessly clean, everything you needed for a self catering holiday.”

Handy for all local amenities, pubs, restaurants and amazing walks. Only two recommendations 1) a clothes horse or airier in our climate you can guarantee rain and wet clothes!! 2) hooks on back of doors for hanging coats or a coat rack.

- Julie, October 2020

“Wine and chocolate a nice touch.”

We didn’t expect a hairdryer, nor an iron. The ironing board was hiding behind a partition

- M, September 2020
Peter September 2020

“Lovely apartment just as described, great place for exploring and the food was delicious especially at Nr 5.”

Nice off road parking. Gorgeous little fishing harbour with trips out into the bay you might see dolphins

- Peter, September 2020
Fiona July 2020

“Fabulous apartment.”

Brand new and spotless. A brilliant central location, with parking and everything you need in a high-spec apartment. The village of Mevagissey is lovely, with plenty of amenities. I only marked down Comfort as a lighter duvet for July/August would have been welcome. Overall a 5 star holiday.

Mevagissey Apartments

Two sleek and stylish apartments resting in the fishing port of Mevagissey, both Midships and The Crows Nest offer a beautiful base from which to discover Cornwall. Whether you visit as a couple, friends or a family of four, these two properties are perfect for any occasion. Both properties offer an open-plan living space, making a wonderful spot for a social gathering or time alone in pairs snuggled up on the sofa when you're not out exploring the wonders of the local area. Sample some of the extraordinary local produce and delicacies within the array of restaurants and eateries, or visit Mevagissey Wet Fish to pick up some fresh seafood for some home-cooking. Wander around the picture-perfect harbour and enjoy an ice cream as you watch the boats come and go on a sunny day. Embark on a trip to Pentewan Beach via the South West Coast Path, and be amazed by the bright white sands and clear blue sea before you. Not far away is an enchanting attraction, The Lost Gardens of Heligan with incredible landscaped areas with tropical plants, and unique sculptures dotted around, some hiding within the flora and fauna. Don't miss a chance to visit the world-famous Eden Project where two huge bio-domes house tropical and Mediterranean climates to showcase a host of plants and flowers from around the world. The pretty harbour of Charlestown makes a lovely detour, and is home to the Shipwreck Treasure Museum holding artefacts from over 150 shipwrecks including the famous Titanic, whilst a tour around the St Austell Brewery is a great activity choice, founded in 1851 by Walter Hicks, it is not the biggest brewery in Cornwall. Relax in the quaint fishing village of Mevagissey with your loved one in The Crows Nest. The Mevagissey Apartments are a wonderful place from which to explore the many delights of Cornwall.
